INTERMENTS IN THE GENERAL PROTESTANT CEMETERY 1889
This transcription made from a photocopy. The copy was very faded, as was, apparently, the original. Some sections are *really* difficult to read. Initials are hard to distinguish, I=s, J=s, T=s and F=s all look alike, as do M=s and N=s. Notes to cause of death may have been made after the fact in some instances. As with any transcription, typos are possible. This should not be used in place of references to the original.
